Probably one of the best looking cars ever.
It is one most best cars PERIOD
Be happy Max 😉, you convinced me to buy this car. I bought a red coupe LC with the same Carmel color interior and I LOVE it.
Congratulations!
Good choice!
@@jareknowak8712 Thanks :)
You couldn’t have chosen better, this car is absolutely gorgeous 🔥 Congrats man!
Glad you did, as this is probably the last time we'll see V8s in any Lexus... enjoy!
Not many cars are made like this.This just got everything! The exterior design and the colour of interior which makes its so gorgeous.I can’t ignore such gorgeous interior with those great seats and it’s Lexus! I hope I could review such car someday.
And toyota/lexus reliability. This engine will not break down on you, even if you beat it daily. Just so long as you change fluids often.
@@The_Noticer. Absolutely!
@@The_Noticer. thats a wrong thinking you know ? Only Toyota is really reliable 'cause everything is manual without any support by electric/technology. Every engine in present days are the same reliability, but the electric part is not so sure. Degrades over time is substance of electronic, but its bring convenient, comfortable, worth is it ?
Driving a car without any options, electronic its like brick phone, only basic functions.
@@langbutnotscottlang.2341 ffs I wrote a whole essay on why it's not the case but youtube consistently removes my comments because i'm blacklisted. Suffice it to say, japanese engines like toyota or honda cannot be compared to VAG engines. For examples, technology like D4-S that clean the intake ports, you will not find that on any other modern car.
@@langbutnotscottlang.2341 That's a wrongthinking you know? Toyota and Japanese cars are more reliable because they have a better production methods and quality control, even one the electronics. Simple as that. Lexus is a highe end luxury brand and it is one of the most reliable brands in the world. European luxury brands are worst reliable. These are facts gathered from the consumers statsitics. The question you should ask though, why this makes you uncomfortable? If, you can give an honest answer to this question, then you may have a better understanding why Japanese brands are more reliable than Euroean brans.
haha "It's really not that quick" after going flat out 280 kmh for a while at 19:44
Same as diesel X5 or his Q7 does. So?
@@8000860 So Taycan Turbo S is slow car becouse it has only 268 km/h top speed?
@@saska3770 Taycan is terrible car on its own. But EV are known to be slow on high speeds.
@@8000860 so what
U talking taycan slow it does 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds
Speaking of emissions, EU should let manufacturers build this type of car (sports cars) without taking into account their overall emissions. Because sports cars are not sold in high numbers and are driven few km a year. So the impact on the environment is insignificant
EU should start to wisen up that the CO2 produced by the cars or any vehicle on the surface of Earth i.e. ground level is not the cause for the Global warming and it can be remedied easily by increasing the forests. However, it is the CO2 that is pumped in the higher atmosphere by those airplanes is the real culprit since there are no green plants at that altitude to turn that CO2 into Oxygen, and at that altitude the CO2 will remain about 500 years.
You re wrong...because this assumption would require some sort of common sense which these clowns dont have...luckily there are a few people like you or me out there that have common sense and some sort of IQ.
Also they should factor in that emissions do jack sht to environment...
@@falafelgaming3430 Literally. One cargo ship in it's lifetime already did more than all cars would ever do.
I brought the LC500 last Saturday and today is my pick up date at the dealer. It's a gray colour with black/red interior. I put my down payment right after testdrive. It's absolutely amazing!
What’s your job?
Perfect spec 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Nothing has more soul than a Naturally aspirated petrol engine...this is one hell of a V8 with a soul...those turbo V8’s are fast and torquey for sure...but this, this is something else!
No one captures the sheer joy and fun of driving the LC like you, Max. And no one comes close to coining terms like car porn and wet farts to describe features. I’ve had a coupe for 2+ years and everything you say is spot on. I bought it as a daily driver - great, but find it’s a great GT getting about 30 miles per gallon on a 500 mile trip, and a fun performance car - have taken it close to top speed. The active rear steering, auto rear wing and carbon fiber roof make a noticeable improvement in handling. Even an amateur driver like me could tell. The induction sound and exhaust note are completely addictive making it hard not to rev it out all the time. The infotainment system is no big deal. Just set it all up and use voice commands for just about everything. However, the back seats are a joke. I tortured a teenager by making him sit back there for 20 miles. As one sarcastic reviewer put it, “They’re perfectly comfortable for people with no legs!” If I could suggest one improvement it would be to have a camera up front or a 360 one. Thanks, Max. Keep those reviews coming.
The word sexy was invented specifically for this car. It's a mixture of Lamborghini aventador and Mercedes S class. A total beauty.
I would say a mix between an Aston Martin and an American Muscle Car for the big V8 sound.
Beautiful beast of a car. Love the tan interior and tan roof with the olive paint combo!
I'm really into tan interiors in general I think maybe they seem the happy medium between all black and flashy to me.
Yh true, i like the tan interior on rs6/rs7 with a light blue paint and silver trim 👌🏾
This car is a piece of art
These will will become very popular in the next 5 years
Never ending love for Naturally Aspirateds❤️❤️
Yeah, almost rare these times
the car is so good, he even wiped a tear for it 9:11
Lol nice one
that's a big nose tear
I love how your reviews are so energetic and positive. For "this" car, "this" day, whatever car you are reviewing is your favorite car. You are a true car guy. Thank you so much for all you do.
Good Video!!!!
I want to see a Lexus LFA
Yea gorgeous v10 on the autobahn is all I need
Every reviewer trash talks the infotainment system, specifically the trackpad interface. I came close to not buying this car because of these reviews though the many other positive aspects, particularly the drive train, overcame my hesitancy. Having owned the car for 3 months and compared it to my current and previous cars (MB s class 560), BMW (650i and z40i), Tesla S, Volvo XC90) all of which have touchscreens and/or rotary dials, I can honestly say that the Lexus interface is comparable in to all, with the exception of Tesla which is in a class by itself.
The key to using the Lexus touchpad interface is to a) read the directions (something most reviewers don't seem to do) and b) go into setup to adjust the sensitivity of the touchpad to your liking which for me is to make it much less sensitive to movement than the factory setting. I also use Apple CarPlay exclusively for my entertainment and find the touchpad works great (I got a wireless CarPlay adapter which works perfectly). I would agree that Lexus needs to improve the interface for the radio and for every car's navigation system the best interface is still voice command. The navigation voice command works well in the Lexus though no where as good as Tesla.
Reviewers also don't like the fact that there are no buttons to adjust the seat heater/ventilation or steering wheel heat. This was another major drawback in my opinion. However, the Climate Concierge feature works great. Simply dial up the temperature slightly and the seats and steering wheel automatically gets warm. Lexus seems to have perfected how to keep the car's temperature just right and minimize the number of buttons I have to click; just adjust the temperature and the car does everything else.
Needless to say, the best part of this car is the drive experience and its looks both exterior and interior. This car compares to others cost 50-100% more. This is a classic car that I hope to keep for many, many years.
i never had a problem with my Lexus input and i dont like fatty fingerprints on screens in a luxurious car !
Excellent summary. I have similar thoughts after owning the car.
I have this same car (2021 LC 500 Convertible Nori Green). I have had it 7 months and because of Covid only have 3500 miles on it.
This and the IS500 are the only new cars I'd ever want to buy. Absolutely love the styling, interior and the sounds. Truly amazing.
do they even sell IS500 in europe?
@@bokebryant3985 No clue. I live in Florida
@@bokebryant3985yes but they re ripping you off, 100k € for a is 500f when you could get a lc500 or gsf
@@rarespopovici4402 true I would rather go for Lc500 with that price, IS500 is not even that sporty (which is why it’s not ISF)
I absolutely love this car! There are so many supercool cars out there but this masterpiece has got something special. A LC500 for every day driving, a LFA for the weekend and Nismo GT R for trackdays - that would be really cool...
@max of @autotopnl. The auto up shift only happens in 1st gear and it happens regardless of the driving mode ;) Thx for the review. Nice to see someone who understands this car for what it was built for instead of spec shaming it.
Dream 2nd car! Engine, styling, and legendary Lexus reliability and excellent dealer service. And built in the same factory as the LFA!
Waking up every morning and having this car in my garage or driveway I could die happy
A nobel should be given for the designer of this car. And this color combo is just stunning
I love this masterpiece of a car so much!
Love your reviews brother.
This car is one the most reliable cars in the world. it is a high end GT car. Until Europeans start to make such a high end car with similar reliability, they should not be offended by this car's presence in the market. Such an underrated car for its superior quality.
glad to hear you like the lexus. it is the only luxury car i like these days.
230 km/h and no wind sound! Is lock and sounds great.
Imagine if they put the LFA engine into this beauty !!
I love your POV man 👍
It's only when i saw one of these on the road, i realized just how awesome they look. " I thought it was a half million pound car" (Doug Demuro said it was one of the only cars he had ever given a 10 for quality )
I believe he did give it a 10 for quality, I don't think he gave it a 10 for styling which it definitely deserves
Been in love with that car since 2019, we don’t even have it in lebanon
I'm 20 years old from Japan and a person who dreams of owning cars like Bentley Continental. Basically GT car. I am not even started anything to be successful, so maybe not something to worry about yet. I always think "well I could never be an English gentleman that rides Bentley. I wish there are world-class Japanese Grand Tour." Then, Lexus decided to introduce this beauty. Porsche 911, Bentley Continental GT, Merc SL, are all stunning in their own ways. But, Lexus LC is at the top. Hopefully, I will experience the life of owning it in 10 years.
p.s. Toyota makes a popular but hideous-looking car called Alphard/Vellfire for the Japanese market. The luxury mini-van is very popular here. I know Toyota makes that car because it's very profitable and there are needs to it. But thank you Toyota for making cars like LC500 and Landcruiser as well:) You guys are amazing!
Now somehow pls do a review on lfa . I want to hear that v10
other than the infotainment(which kina usable when i ride with my father), this car is PERFECT!
if I ever get successful with life, this will be the first luxury car i get
Cant get over with the v8 sound AND ITS MEAN TOO!!
I loved this colour so much that I resprayed my MK1 MX5 the same colour.
This video sold me on the car. I now own the coupe variant with carbon fiber roof and performance package
Seriously underrated car. It's my all time favorite car right now. agreed the nav/control/touch pad system is crap but at least it has Apple CarPlay. And I love the tan leather interior. It's the only color to get IMO. The Green or Blue exterior with the tan is perfect.
Here picturing a color match where the entire car is in the same shade of grey(my favorite color❣️) as the turning signals/lights trim 🤯
What a magnificent car🙏
I own a Lexus nx. I heard this thing fire up in a dealership. It’s a head turner. You said it, more special than fast. I want a cabrio and this is top choice. Reminds me a lot of my friend’s 928. I also own a Boxster S… but I’ve gotten old. I need comfort.
Love this lexsus best car ever
"OKAY! Let's send it to the autobahn...cause...well...why not!"
:)
its a sick Car Bro ! I mean whats a BEAUTY !!
masterpiece of a car man
My all time dream car, I WILL own one some day
Good luck
Watching this right after your coupe review from a few years ago and I think you have a thing for the volume knob...lol
We got 6 cars in our Garage, 1. Porsche 911, BMW M4 cabriolet, Audi R8 V10 , nissan GTR, S63 AMG cabriolet....but when I drive our Lexus LC 500 Cabriolet it is much different it gives you much fun it's one of the best cars which I ever driven....love LC 500
This is the best car ever made. I am serious. All the things it combines are unmatched. Just peak car.
Please do a video on 812 superfast
Did you change the camera angle, i mean did you put it in superview mode? The angle is wider and get me unconfortable almost dizzy
I have never ever seen a new Best sounding, Best looking, Average Performing and Shit entertainment screen on a car before. It is awesome!!! No car can beat this GLORIOUS cabriolét.
And it's not targeted to Hoonigan people and that is AWESOME indeed! It should be seen as a luxury item not a Toyota Supra
This may be the most beautiful car I've ever seen.
This car is such an beautiful underdog an so rare on the streets. Always happy to see one of them!
What a stunning machine...
The new ES also has a gorgeous interior, much better than a 5 series with the same price tag 🙂
drove a coupe and loved it....would you take the coupe or convertible?
I love this car too. I'm hoping you can get your hands on the Inspiration Series LC500 and do a video on that.
The most beautiful convertible. And boy the sound is amazing
It sounds as beautiful as it looks, what a lovely V8 😍
AWESOME VIDEO AMAZING FANTASTIC BRILLIANT 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
What a stunning looking car and that V8, WOW.
What a beautiful interior! 🥰
What a color!
That car is ❤️ love
What an amazing spec🤩
What a gorgeous interior. Lexus is one of the best cars in the world.
Please, could you do a review of LFA?
Please review the Peugeot 508 PSE!
Very good video 😁😃👍🚗
Love the looks, love the sound, love the car
my dream car
Its side profile kind of looks like an Aston Martin. The flush doorhandles, and wide rounded rear wheel base
That 5 liter V8 is one of the most reliable engines. Built like a tank, and using D4-S, meaning it doesn't carb up the intake valves. Lexus builds sportscars/supercars that last.
It has always been for car autists.
So cool
It is so true. This car is too underrated. I drove one. It's totally amazing. I have a Ls500 another amazing luxury sedan that is also underrated. Lexus is no doubt are amazing vehicles.
No
Outstanding review that this car deserves!
Compare to hybrid,,, which is better??? Is hybrid ver. doesn't make that acceleration sound?
Good day Max! Which one would you prefer to buy, a LC convertible or a Ferrari Portofino? But when it comes to maintenance ferrari is more expensive. Take an extra care when you're driving at Autobahn. God Bless everyone and Stay Safe 🙏
My favorite car ever, it's not about the numbers with this car it's about the experience. Like your watch as much as the car though ;) what watch is it?
Aap kya kar ree ho
Wow...what a car!
I love that Max was so excited to show the plush interior of the "Elsie", that he forgot to show the engine. 😂👍
LEXUS dream car and japan tech is so beyond
I have a rc200t and I'm in love. It's not ultrafast, but as a gt and feeling is perfect. In Portugal only sold 10 units 🇵🇹🇵🇹
My dream car 😊
that's my favorite car too) that v8 sound is awesome.
5:55 is this interior better than S63 AMG coupe? what do you think?
This interior is 🔥! And performance is amazing as well!
Lexus = Luxury
My GOD, what a sound that thing makes!
This car is incredible.
Thank you for this review
Very good car
Such a lovely Japanese car
"It is not such a fast car", says he at 285km/h
Right¿2 tons…
in the states they call that colour "nori green pearl" , that color changes ALOT with lighting i love it
Two days ago i was thinking that should I get this car or not and that I want a sign just one sign if i should do it or not and today two youtubers that I’m subscribed to uploaded a vid about this car I’m just gonna do it at this point
Test drive first
@@ozhoneybadger sure thing thanks
03:58 it makes the same chime as my 2006 toyota yaris 🤣
I still love the car tho
Expecting performance from a LC500 or any other luxury Lexus models is like expecting performance and handling from any RR
This is the best color combo for it. My dream car ! It's gorgeous
its not about speed.. this car classy
